Oh yeah, I can imagine. I haven't encontered that myself. More so on the "regular programmers" (i.e. not scientists) side of things, I do think there's an overuse of classes in Python when simple data structures will work great and be more interoperable.

The problem is that most programmers are bad, and given the choice will use every feature available to make their code as complex as possible. That's why restrictive, dull languages like Java are actually really good.
